Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak (or other beef)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 cup cooked white or brown rice
  • 1 cup vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, etc.)

  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean chili paste)
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp lime juice

  3. Prepare spicy cream sauce by mixing sour cream, gochujang, honey, and lime juice.
  4. Chop vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
